The Berkeley Street Theatre – Courtyard26 Berkeley Street, Toronto

Our inaugural production, THE CONTAINER by UK playwright Clare Bayley, invites audiences into the close quarters and high stakes of international migrant smuggling. First presented at the SummerWorks Performance Festival in August 2014, THE CONTAINER received significant media attention (“Cramped ‘Container’ pushes theatre’s boundaries”, The Globe and Mail) and critical acclaim for its inventive direction (Zachary Florence, Outstanding Direction, NOW Magazine), design (Jennifer Lennon, Outstanding Design, NOW Magazine), and performances (Toronto Life “Best Bet”, NNNN and “Outstanding Ensemble” from NOW Magazine, “Our ten favourite things from SummerWorks” according to Torontoist). We are bringing THE CONTAINER back to Toronto for a limited engagement from September 4 to 18 at The Berkeley Street Theatre – Courtyard.
